There are things that you, as a writer, can’t or shouldn’t do for yourself. The cover sells your book, so unless you’re a graphic design artist, get a pro. You need an editor who will read what you wrote, instead of what you think you wrote. (With me, anyway, they are not always the same thing.) Then there is putting your manuscript in proper eBook and paperback formats and publishing it on the various platforms. Get Book Marketeers to do all this for you, so you can get started on your next book. Poor Chris had to put up with my changes of mind on the cover, blurb, and backmatter. The long-suffering Anne had to wait till I was in the mood to review editorial suggestions. And the elusive and mysterious Tessa had to get used to my peculiar literary “voice.” But they handled it like pros, and I was very pleased with the final product.

From my initial chat with Casey White my total experience with Book Marketeers has been nothing but excellent! Casey gave me a thorough overview of the services provided by Book Marketeers, and they matched exactly what I needed. Not only did they say they could fulfill all my requirements, they have really come through. Book Marketeers has literally delivered all the way through! Once I submitted my manuscript, the team I had the privilege of working was headed by Chris Matthew, as Senior Project Manager. The team consisted of Anne, Peach, Alan, and Aly. Each of these individual displayed professionalism each step of the way. In addition to their well developed knowledge and skills for their particular role in the process, they each displayed genuine courtesy and kindness in all their communications. They were always, and I mean every time, extremely prompt and positive as they responded to the numerous questions I asked as a first time author. They all know "their stuff" about editing, formatting, developing a cover, and the many details of what it really takes to turn a manuscript into a real book. After an introduction to Book Marketeers in a couple of conversations with Casey, and then talking with Chris, I felt they were the type people I could work well with. The pleasant working relationship with the entire team, plus their superb technical abilities, have enabled me to have a most rewarding and enjoyable experience. I really don't know any way how my experience with Book Marketeers could have been any better! I highly recommend them to any first-time or seasoned author, without any hesitation or reservation.

Bookmarketeers did excellent work. They did the job on time and on budget, and they kept me in the loop every step of the way.

Kevin made sure that the web design for my book, “What’s In The Book?” replicated the concept I was trying to convey. I love working with Kevin. He gets the job done very quickly and efficiently.

Professional, timely, well communicated and well done proofing process. I will reuse them again.

Kevin Williams and his team did a wonderful job designing the cover for my historical romance novel ONLY YOU. They completed the work in a timely fashion and made any changes I requested the same day. I'm very pleased with the cover they designed.

I used "Bookmarketeers" to publish my first book, "History of the Lacey Fire Department - the first decade." Bookmarketeers designed the cover, formatted the many pictures and articles I had, and edited the book. All of the work was done in a timely fashion and with the exception of a couple of minor formatting errors, did great work. Brian Smith, Jack Hudson and "Anne" did most of the work on my document. While all of this was done on-line or on the phone, they were a joy to work with. As a new writer who had never published a book before, I was not exactly aware of what to expect with regard to "time frames." For instance, I assumed I would submit my whole manuscript, and the company would edit the entire thing, then send it back for my review. It did not work that way. About 20 pages were edited and sent to me for my check-off. This process continued until the book was done. Some better communication up front would have reduced confusion on my part. Once I understood the process, things went smoothly. Also, changes to the book cover took quite some time to accomplish, but again, some communication up front would solve this. Overall, I give Bookmarketeers an A+.

I like these folks and you will too! Not my first time publishing, but my first time self publishing, and on that point, I would recommend paying up front and owning your book in lieu of being published by over-controlling and money gobbling traditional publishers. Book Marketeers are actually the people you go to to get your book all the way from a raw product to a nicely edited and finished book you can hold in your hands. They have editors who work for a senior editor. Paul edited most of my 544 pages and Anne supervised. She is a busy person but for sure on top of her game. Paul is a master of wordcraft. Working with her team, Anne produced a wonderfully edited piece that they will feed to you in digestible steps. Typically, she would have me review 1-3 chapters per week, which we would wrestle with then finally accept. The process will not be easy, but it IS rewarding, and it DOES produce a quality work you can be proud of. Next you have a project manager, a gentleman named Chris in my case. He is infinitely patient and pretty experienced. He also personally oversees the book cover design initially offering you suggestions then options. This too is a process, but one which I very much enjoyed. I moved along at a "Normal to slower" pace by choice, but they are capable of some speed if you're under a time constraint. Really, there is so much to publishing a book, I would oh so highly recommend a company like this one and Book Marketeers in particular as I can personally validate their capabilities. Bottom line is: I love my book. Sell one copy or a million, I am very satisfied by the work and process and the ten thousand emails (Exaggerating) we shared. I'm so satisfied that I'm going to do it again with them!
